We deceided to go ahead and have the vet give him the shot,it was through the nose.He was fine after the shots.On friday he had loose stool and his stomach was making noises,didnt eat that morning.I talked to the vet and she told me to drop of the stool sample and give him a quarter of the pepcid ac tablet.I did that,he ate all his food later on and was fine and full of energy.I emailed the breeder and asked her what could be wrong with leo and i told her about the Bortadella.OMG,she was so mad about that shot.She emailed me back saying that she warned me about the shot and so on..
anyway Leo's results came back on sat and the vet told me he had a mild case of hookworms and that he just needs the deworming medicine which was one pill.
She told me he got the hookworms from when his mother was nursing him.He is doing good now.But i was just shocked the way the breeder was reacting to the bortadella shot.
ANy of your yorkies had this shot done?why are so many ppl against it
im just happy Leo is ok  |
I have always given them their full course of shots. Never seen anything happen.
